  • Hi everyone. In this video I am sharing a few lovely bags that I either did not use at all or used once in 2023. This is why minimalism is such a priority for me..I feel like it's wasteful and excessive. Now, there is no judgement, I understand how this happens to us! My personal viewpoint is that I don't want to take this behavior of mine into 2024. Let me know your thoughts!

    I have too many bags too! And the reason we don't use them is because we don't have a very social lifestyle, people in USA dress extremely casual and there are no many places to wear fancy or pretty things. I want to sell some of my bags too. They are so pretty to be in a box.

    I have the same issue. I think that for me I purchase things I love in the moment but I am not making sure that I will actually use it or it will fit my lifestyle. I think all of us handbag addicts have the same issue. 🤦🏾‍♀️

      Less can really be more. I find myself happier when I can see what I have and rotate it so it doesn’t feel like a waste of money. I’m still working on the cubes but I need more space 😩 thank you for watching.

    Beautiful bags. But if you don’t reach for them or they no longer spark joy when you see them.. I would definitely sell it and get something else you love. I’m in a similar boat where I’m trying to use my bags in rotation. Something I’m still working on. Thanks for showing us your bags❤

    What I would do with the gold metallic Tabby is leave her out where I could see her. I can't imagine not reaching for that little beauty!💛Re your Tiffany blue & your hot pink bag, it doesn't sound like they spark joy for you. Bye-bye? I think you love your Marc Jacobs & your Dooney. I recently took 16 bags that I was no longer taken with to consignment. I want no more than 30 bags, which is about where I'm at, so no buying for me for now.😮😂🌻

      Can you believe I sold the little Tabby? I was a little sad about it but the reality is that I had never used it; not even for the Holidays and I thought for sure I would. I am actually excited about unwrapping the green Tory Burch because of Spring/Summer 🤩 Thank you for watching and sharing!

    Love all the bags especially that pink one.
    I def have a few more bags that may need to leave the collection this year. I just simply not reaching for them or have the room.
    Most importantly the goal now is not to add more 1 a year.

    I just recently declutter due to moving and I gave 8 bags away and it was a relief. I went from having 20 bags on my wishlist to now having 5 and I plan on sticking to that. My goal is to buy handbags that is functional for my lifestyle, one’s that I can wear anytime I want and not have to baby them

    I have the Cassie 19 in the Tiffany blue color and it is still in the box. I bought it out of impulse and it’s not a color I will normally gravitate to. She is pretty but I know I won’t wear. Thank you for this great review. 🙌

      @Hopefulminimalist  6 місяців тому +1

      Thanks for sharing! I was on the fence about that Cassie 19; its so pretty. I went with the Tory Burch instead. I think right now is a great time to work in that color alongside winter whites; it’s definitely harder in the fall. Thank you for watching 😊

    The lilac color on your Marc Jacob’s handbag is so pretty. When shopping on eBay, how do you know the handbag you are getting is real? What do you look for before making your purchase?

    • @Hopefulminimalist
      @Hopefulminimalist  6 місяців тому +1

      Thank you! Honestly, I can’t say I know 100% at the time of purchase and there is some risk involved. I definitely do my due diligence in looking at the seller’s reviews, product pictures, and their description. I also ask the seller point blank if it is authentic. Since I have a few same size MJ tote bags that I ordered from MJ, I just compared this one side by side with those. For some other more expensive purchases from eBay, I have had them double authenticated after receipt. There is also the eBay authenticity guarantee which is provided on some items. You could still have your item independently authenticated after you get it too.

    I have to many bags as well I believe because I started a UA-cam channel and purchased bags was for that purpose.don’t get me wrong I love my purse’s it’s just my life style doesn’t call for so many.i have been donating them and giving some away.i have a hard time selling my handbags I believe a lot of women trying to do the same thing.
    I don’t even have space for all these handbags 👜
